Description

本発明は、インサート成形部品及びインサート成形部品の製造方法に関する。   The present invention relates to an insert molded part and a method for manufacturing the insert molded part.

従来、スクータ型の自動二輪車等においては、乗員が足を置くフロア上に、滑り止め機能を有するゴム等のステップフロア部材が設けられる。例えば特許文献1には、ポリプロピレン製のフロアパネルを金型で成形する際、予め所定の形状に切り出したポリプロピレンシートのフロアマットを金型内の所定位置に位置決めセットすることで、フロアマットとフロアパネルとが一体化された一体成形品を成形する技術が開示されている。この技術では、フロアパネルの足置部に全面的にフロアマットが一体形成される。   2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, in a scooter type motorcycle or the like, a step floor member such as rubber having a non-slip function is provided on a floor on which an occupant puts his / her foot. For example, in Patent Document 1, when a polypropylene floor panel is molded with a mold, a floor mat of a polypropylene sheet cut out in a predetermined shape is positioned and set at a predetermined position in the mold, so that the floor mat and floor A technique for forming an integrally molded product in which a panel is integrated is disclosed.

ところで、自動二輪車等においては、ステップフロア部材は外部に露出する部材であるため、乗員の個性に合わせて適宜ステップフロア部材の形状及びカラー等を変更したいという要望が強い。そして、意匠的嗜好性からも、ステップフロア部材をゴムだけで形成したものでなく、板状の他部材(ベース部材)を組み合わせるとともに、該他部材の表面を部分的に外部に露出させるようなステップフロア部材も望まれている。   By the way, in a motorcycle or the like, since the step floor member is a member exposed to the outside, there is a strong demand to change the shape, color, and the like of the step floor member as appropriate in accordance with the individuality of the occupant. And from the viewpoint of the design preference, the step floor member is not only made of rubber, but is combined with a plate-like other member (base member) and the surface of the other member is partially exposed to the outside. Step floor members are also desired.

このようなステップフロア部材は、ベース部材を被覆するようにゴム等の被覆部材を一体的に形成するインサート成形部品とすることが考えられる。この場合、被覆部材にベース部材を露出させる開口部を形成するには、インサート成形時に金型の開口形成部をベース部材の表面に密着させ、開口部を形成する領域に溶融樹脂が流れ込むことを阻止する方法がある。このとき、ベース部材の裏面側における被覆部材への影響、及び金型の密着力によるベース部材の反りの抑制等を考慮する必要がある。   Such a step floor member may be an insert-molded part that integrally forms a covering member such as rubber so as to cover the base member. In this case, in order to form an opening that exposes the base member to the covering member, the opening forming portion of the mold is brought into close contact with the surface of the base member during insert molding, and the molten resin flows into the region where the opening is formed. There is a way to stop it. At this time, it is necessary to consider the influence on the covering member on the back surface side of the base member and the suppression of the warpage of the base member due to the adhesion force of the mold.

そこで本発明は、板状のベース部材に被覆部材を一体的に形成するインサート成形部品及びその製造方法において、ベース部材の表面を部分的に露出させる開口部を被覆部材に形成しながら品質確保を容易にすることを目的とする。   Therefore, the present invention provides an insert molded part that integrally forms a covering member on a plate-like base member and a manufacturing method thereof, and ensures quality while forming an opening in the covering member that partially exposes the surface of the base member. The purpose is to make it easier.

Covering member 31 (floor member) integrally formed so as to cover.

ベース部材26は、ステップフロア部材25の厚さ方向(面直方向)から見て、さらに一回り小さい形状に形成される。ベース部材26は、部材内側縁25a、部材外側縁25b及び部材後端縁25cにそれぞれ沿うように形成されるベース内側縁26a、ベース外側縁26b及びベース後端縁26cを有する。   The base member 26 is formed in a shape that is slightly smaller when viewed from the thickness direction (perpendicular direction) of the step floor member 25.

図4を参照し、ベース部材26の表面26m1には、被覆部材31における表側被覆部32が一体的に設けられる。表側被覆部32は、ステップフロア部材25の面直方向視で軌跡幅を変化させつつN字形状を描くように延びる表内周被覆部33を有する。ベース部材26における表内周被覆部33に覆われる部位には、表内周被覆部33よりも一回り小さい形状のベース開口部27が形成される。   Referring to FIG. 4, the front side covering portion 32 of the covering member 31 is integrally provided on the surface 26 m 1 of the base member 26. The front side covering portion 32 has a front inner peripheral covering portion 33 that extends so as to draw an N shape while changing the trajectory width when the step floor member 25 is viewed in the direction perpendicular to the plane. A base opening 27 having a shape slightly smaller than that of the front inner periphery covering portion 33 is formed at a portion of the base member 26 that is covered with the front inner periphery covering portion 33.

ベース開口部27には、前記N字形状を描く軌跡の適宜個所を横断するように設けられる架設部28が複数(例えば6つ)形成される。複数の架設部28の内の一部(例えば3つ)には、架設部28の幅よりも大きな径の円形状を形成するように拡幅部28aが形成される。拡幅部28aには、ステップフロア部材25のインサート成形時に、被覆部材31が形成されない素のベース部材26をその面方向(平面方向)で位置決め可能とする位置決め孔29(ロケート孔)が形成される。位置決め孔29は、断面円形のロケートピン45を整合、挿入させる円形状に形成される。位置決め孔29及びロケートピン45は、ベース部材26の回転を規制するために複数設けられる。なお、ベース部材26は湾曲又は屈曲等の形状を有してもよい。前記「面直方向」はインサート成形時の型割り方向、「平面方向」は「面直方向」と直交する方向に相当する。   The base opening 27 is formed with a plurality (for example, six) of erection portions 28 provided so as to cross an appropriate portion of the locus for drawing the N-shape. A widened portion 28 a is formed in a part (for example, three) of the plurality of erected portions 28 so as to form a circular shape having a diameter larger than the width of the erected portion 28.

The positioning hole 29 is formed in a circular shape for aligning and inserting the locating pin 45 having a circular cross section. A plurality of positioning holes 29 and locating pins 45 are provided to restrict the rotation of the base member 26. The base member 26 may have a shape such as a curve or a bend. The “perpendicular direction” corresponds to a mold split direction during insert molding, and the “planar direction” corresponds to a direction orthogonal to the “perpendicular direction”.

図4〜図7を参照し、被覆部材31は、ベース部材26の表面26m1側に一体的に形成される表側被覆部32と、ベース部材26の裏面26m2側に一体的に形成される裏側被覆部35と、を備える。   4 to 7, the covering member 31 includes a front side covering portion 32 integrally formed on the front surface 26 m 1 side of the base member 26 and a back side covering integrally formed on the back surface 26 m 2 side of the base member 26. Part 35.

表側被覆部32は、ベース部材26の外周縁に沿って一定幅で延びる表外周被覆部34と、表外周被覆部34の内周側に離間して形成される前記表内周被覆部33と、を備える。表外周覆部及び表内周被覆部33は、互いに面一かつベース部材26の表面26m1と平行なステップ面32a(踏み面、意匠面)を形成する。ステップフロア部材25の表側における表外周被覆部34及び表内周被覆部33を避けた部位は、ベース部材26の表面26m1を外部に露出させる開口部32bとされる。   The front side covering portion 32 includes a front outer periphery covering portion 34 that extends with a constant width along the outer peripheral edge of the base member 26, and the front inner periphery covering portion 33 that is formed on the inner peripheral side of the front outer periphery covering portion 34. . The front outer periphery covering portion and the front inner periphery covering portion 33 form a step surface 32 a (step surface, design surface) that is flush with each other and parallel to the surface 26 m 1 of the base member 26. A portion of the front side of the step floor member 25 that avoids the front outer periphery covering portion 34 and the front inner periphery covering portion 33 is an opening 32b that exposes the surface 26m1 of the base member 26 to the outside.

表内周被覆部33は、ベース部材26の前部から後方へベース外側縁26bの内周側に離間した位置をベース外側縁26bと略平行に延びる第一延出部33aと、第一延出部33aの後端から前方かつ左右内側方へ斜めに延びる第二延出部33bと、第二延出部33bの前端から後方へベース外側縁26bの内周側に離間した位置をベース内側縁26aと略平行に延びる第三延出部33cと、を備える。第三延出部33cの後部は、後側ほど末広がりとなる三角形状部33dとされる。三角形状部33dには、後側ほど左右外側に位置するように傾斜する凹溝33eが複数形成される。   The front inner covering portion 33 includes a first extension portion 33a extending from the front portion of the base member 26 to the rear side toward the inner peripheral side of the base outer edge 26b and extending substantially parallel to the base outer edge 26b. A second extending portion 33b extending obliquely forward and laterally inward from the rear end of the protruding portion 33a, and a position spaced apart from the front end of the second extending portion 33b to the inner peripheral side of the base outer edge 26b are located inside the base. A third extending portion 33c extending substantially parallel to the edge 26a. The rear portion of the third extending portion 33c is a triangular portion 33d that expands toward the rear side. The triangular portion 33d is formed with a plurality of concave grooves 33e that are inclined so that the rear side is located on the left and right outer sides.

裏側被覆部35は、ベース部材26の裏面26m2を全面的に覆うように設けられる。裏側被覆部35は、ベース部材26の裏面26m2と平行な被覆裏面35aを形成する。裏側被覆部35の外周部と表外周被覆部34の外周部とは、ステップフロア部材25の厚さ方向(面直方向)で互いに一体化される。ベース部材26の外周部は、被覆部材31の外周部に全周に渡って覆われる。   The back side covering portion 35 is provided so as to cover the entire back surface 26 m 2 of the base member 26. The back side covering portion 35 forms a covered back surface 35 a parallel to the back surface 26 m 2 of the base member 26. The outer peripheral part of the back side covering part 35 and the outer peripheral part of the front outer peripheral covering part 34 are integrated with each other in the thickness direction (perpendicular direction) of the step floor member 25. The outer peripheral portion of the base member 26 is covered by the outer peripheral portion of the covering member 31 over the entire periphery.

裏側被覆部35において、開口部32bの裏側となる部位には、インサート成形時にベース部材26の裏面26m2を支持可能とする成形時支持部36が設けられる。成形時支持部36は、金型40における後述する第一支持ピン43の円柱状の先端部でベース部材26の裏面26m2を当接支持することで形成される。成形時支持部36は、面直方向視で円形をなし、ベース部材26の裏面26m2をステップフロア部材25の裏側に露出させる。成形時支持部36は、開口部32bの前後に二箇所ずつ、計四か所に設けられる。   In the back side covering portion 35, a portion on the back side of the opening 32b is provided with a molding support portion 36 that can support the back surface 26m2 of the base member 26 during insert molding. The molding support portion 36 is formed by abutting and supporting the back surface 26m2 of the base member 26 at a cylindrical tip portion of a first support pin 43 (described later) in the mold 40. The molding support portion 36 has a circular shape when viewed in the direction perpendicular to the surface, and exposes the back surface 26 m 2 of the base member 26 to the back side of the step floor member 25. The molding support portions 36 are provided at a total of four locations, two locations before and after the opening portion 32b.

表側被覆部32におけるベース部材26を露出させる開口部32bは、インサート成形時に金型40の開口形成部47をベース部材26の表面26m1に押し当てて密着させ、開口部32bを形成する領域に溶融樹脂Jが流れ込まないようにすることで形成される。このとき、開口部32bの周縁にバリを生じさせないためには、開口形成部47をベース部材26にしっかり密着させる必要がある。開口形成部47をベース部材26にしっかり密着させるためには、ベース部材26を裏側から支持する必要があるが、このとき、ベース部材26を支持する場所によっては、板状のベース部材26を反らせたり裏側被覆部35に種々の痕を付けたりすることがある。   The opening 32b that exposes the base member 26 in the front cover portion 32 is melted in a region where the opening 32b is formed by pressing the opening forming portion 47 of the mold 40 against the surface 26m1 of the base member 26 during insert molding. It is formed by preventing the resin J from flowing in. At this time, in order not to generate burrs at the periphery of the opening 32b, the opening forming portion 47 needs to be firmly attached to the base member 26. In order to firmly attach the opening forming portion 47 to the base member 26, it is necessary to support the base member 26 from the back side. At this time, depending on the place where the base member 26 is supported, the plate-like base member 26 is warped. In some cases, the backside covering portion 35 may have various marks.

これに対し、本実施形態では、開口部32bの裏側となる部位にベース部材26の裏面26m2を支持する成形時支持部36を設けている。これにより、ステップフロア部材25のインサート成形時に、金型40の開口形成部47をベース部材26に密着させる際にも、開口形成部47がベース部材26を押圧する力は、成形時支持部36においてベース部材26の裏側から直接的に支持される。このため、開口部32b(開口形成部47)を避けた位置に成形時支持部36(第一支持ピン43)を設ける場合と比べて、開口形成部47の密着力を確保してバリの発生等を抑えた上で、板状のベース部材26の反り等を抑えることができる。また、最小限の成形時支持部36で効率よくベース部材26を支持可能となり、ベース部材26裏側の支持痕を減らすとともに成形性の確保も容易にすることができる。   On the other hand, in the present embodiment, a molding support portion 36 that supports the back surface 26m2 of the base member 26 is provided at a site on the back side of the opening 32b. As a result, when the step floor member 25 is insert-molded, even when the opening forming portion 47 of the mold 40 is brought into close contact with the base member 26, the force with which the opening forming portion 47 presses the base member 26 is the supporting portion 36 during molding. In FIG. 4, the base member 26 is directly supported from the back side. For this reason, as compared with the case where the molding support portion 36 (first support pin 43) is provided at a position avoiding the opening portion 32b (opening formation portion 47), the adhesion of the opening formation portion 47 is ensured and burrs are generated. In addition, the warpage of the plate-like base member 26 can be suppressed. Further, the base member 26 can be efficiently supported by the minimum support portion 36 at the time of molding, and the support traces on the back side of the base member 26 can be reduced and the moldability can be easily ensured.

裏側被覆部35における開口部32bの裏側でかつ成形時支持部36を避けた部位には、ステップフロア部材25をフットレスト21に取り付け可能とする突部37が複数形成される。
図5を参照し、突部37は、ステップフロア部材25の面直方向に沿う円柱状の基部37aと、基部37aの先端部に拡径して連なる傘部37bと、を備える。傘部37bは、先端側に向けて開放するカップ状(中空状)をなし、フットレスト21の係止孔(不図示)に縮径するように弾性変形しつつ差し込まれて係止される。これら複数の突部37により、ステップフロア部材25がフットレスト21に取り付けられる。
裏側被覆部35における突部37を形成する部位の被覆裏面35aには、突部37よりもやや大径の範囲をベース部材26側に浅く変位させる基端凹部38が形成される。これにより、突部37の基端の隅部に形成されるフィレット面が前記係止孔の周縁に干渉し難くなる。
A plurality of protrusions 37 that allow the step floor member 25 to be attached to the footrest 21 are formed on the back side covering portion 35 on the back side of the opening portion 32b and avoiding the support portion 36 during molding.
Referring to FIG. 5, the protrusion 37 includes a columnar base portion 37 a that extends along the perpendicular direction of the step floor member 25, and an umbrella portion 37 b that expands and continues to the distal end portion of the base portion 37 a. The umbrella portion 37b has a cup shape (hollow shape) that opens toward the distal end side, and is inserted and locked while being elastically deformed so as to reduce in diameter to a locking hole (not shown) of the footrest 21. The step floor member 25 is attached to the footrest 21 by the plurality of protrusions 37.
A base end concave portion 38 is formed on the covered back surface 35 a of the back side covering portion 35 where the protrusion 37 is formed, and the range of a slightly larger diameter than the protrusion 37 is shallowly displaced toward the base member 26. Thereby, the fillet surface formed at the corner of the base end of the protrusion 37 is less likely to interfere with the peripheral edge of the locking hole.

図8に示すように、ステップフロア部材25を形成する金型40(成形型)は、図中下側に位置する固定型41と、図中上側に位置する可動型42と、を備える。図示都合上、固定型41を下型、可動型42を上型として示すが、これらが上下逆でもよく、かつ上下方向とは異なる水平方向等で接近離反する構成でもよい。   As shown in FIG. 8, a mold 40 (molding die) for forming the step floor member 25 includes a fixed die 41 located on the lower side in the drawing and a movable die 42 located on the upper side in the drawing. For convenience of illustration, the fixed mold 41 is shown as a lower mold and the movable mold 42 is shown as an upper mold. However, these may be upside down, and may be configured to approach and separate in a horizontal direction or the like different from the vertical direction.

金型40は、固定型41に可動型42を接近させてこれらを型締め状態とし、この状態で金型40内部に成形空間CVを形成する。金型40は、成形空間CV内にベース部材26をセットし、このベース部材26の周囲に被覆部材31を一体的に形成可能とする。   In the mold 40, the movable mold 42 is brought close to the fixed mold 41 so as to be clamped, and in this state, a molding space CV is formed inside the mold 40. In the mold 40, the base member 26 is set in the molding space CV, and the covering member 31 can be integrally formed around the base member 26.

例えば固定型41(下型)には、ベース部材26の裏面26m2(下面)に先端面(上端面)を当接させる円柱状の支持ピンが複数立設される。
図6を併せて参照し、複数の支持ピンは、ベース部材26における被覆部材31の開口部32bを形成する部位の裏面26m2に先端面43aを当接させる第一支持ピン43と、ベース部材26における被覆部材31に覆われる部位の裏面26m2に先端面44aを当接させるとともにベース部材26に形成される位置決め孔29に先端突部(ロケートピン45)を整合状態で挿入する第二支持ピン44と、に分別される。
For example, the fixed die 41 (lower die) is provided with a plurality of columnar support pins that abut the front end surface (upper end surface) on the back surface 26m2 (lower surface) of the base member 26.
Referring also to FIG. 6, the plurality of support pins include a first support pin 43 that abuts the front end surface 43 a on the back surface 26 m 2 of the portion of the base member 26 that forms the opening 32 b of the covering member 31, and the base member 26. A second support pin 44 for bringing the front end surface 44a into contact with the back surface 26m2 of the portion covered with the covering member 31 and inserting the front end protrusion (locating pin 45) into the positioning hole 29 formed in the base member 26 in an aligned state. , Will be sorted.

係る構成において、フロアステップ部材25を製造する際の工程について図8、図9を参照して説明する。
まず、図8(a)、図9を参照し、固定型41に対して可動型42が離間した型開き状態にあるときに、ベース部材26を金型40内の所定位置に略水平に搬入する(ベース部材搬入工程S1)。
次に、ベース部材26の複数の位置決め孔29に、固定型41の複数の第二支持ピン44のロケートピン45を、それぞれ整合状態で挿入する(平面方向位置決め工程S2)。これにより、ベース部材26の水平方向(平面方向)での位置決めがなされる。
In this configuration, a process for manufacturing the floor step member 25 will be described with reference to FIGS.
First, referring to FIG. 8A and FIG. 9, when the movable mold 42 is in an open state in which the movable mold 42 is separated from the fixed mold 41, the base member 26 is carried into a predetermined position in the mold 40 substantially horizontally. (Base member loading step S1).
Next, the locating pins 45 of the plurality of second support pins 44 of the fixed die 41 are inserted into the plurality of positioning holes 29 of the base member 26 in an aligned state (planar direction positioning step S2). As a result, the base member 26 is positioned in the horizontal direction (plane direction).

図6を併せて参照し、ロケートピン45は、例えば段付き形状の第二支持ピン44の先端部(上端部)に設けられる。第二支持ピン44は、ロケートピン45の基端外周にベース部材26の裏面26m2に当接可能な段差面(先端面44a)を形成する。固定型41における第二支持ピン44を避けた部位には、ベース部材26の裏面26m2に先端面43aを当接可能な第一支持ピン43が配置される。   Referring also to FIG. 6, the locate pin 45 is provided at the tip (upper end) of the stepped second support pin 44, for example. The second support pin 44 forms a step surface (tip surface 44 a) that can contact the rear surface 26 m 2 of the base member 26 on the outer periphery of the base end of the locate pin 45. A first support pin 43 capable of abutting the front end surface 43 a on the back surface 26 m 2 of the base member 26 is disposed at a portion of the fixed mold 41 that is away from the second support pin 44.

図8(b)、図9を参照し、平面方向位置決め工程S2でベース部材26を平面方向で位置決めした状態で、可動型42を固定型41に接近させる。可動型42には、被覆部材31の開口部32bと同形状の密着部を有する開口形成部47が設けられる。開口形成部47は、ベース部材26の表面26m1(上面)に開口形成部47を当接、密着させ、該密着部分に溶融樹脂Jが流れ込むことを阻止して被覆部材31の開口部32bを形成する。
上記のように可動型42を固定型41に接近させると、可動型42の開口形成部47と固定型41の第一支持ピン43とでベース部材26が挟み込まれる(面直方向位置決め工程S3)。これにより、ベース部材26の上下方向(面直方向)での位置決めがなされる。
With reference to FIG. 8B and FIG. 9, the movable mold 42 is moved closer to the fixed mold 41 in a state where the base member 26 is positioned in the planar direction in the planar direction positioning step S <b> 2. The movable mold 42 is provided with an opening forming portion 47 having a close contact portion having the same shape as the opening 32 b of the covering member 31. The opening forming portion 47 abuts and closely contacts the opening forming portion 47 with the surface 26m1 (upper surface) of the base member 26, and prevents the molten resin J from flowing into the contacting portion to form the opening 32b of the covering member 31. To do.
When the movable mold 42 is brought close to the fixed mold 41 as described above, the base member 26 is sandwiched between the opening forming portion 47 of the movable mold 42 and the first support pin 43 of the fixed mold 41 (surface direction direction positioning step S3). . As a result, the base member 26 is positioned in the vertical direction (perpendicular direction).

面直方向位置決め工程S3では、開口形成部47をベース部材26の表面26m1に所定の力で密着させるが、その力は、ベース部材26の裏面26m2側から第一支持ピン43により直接的に支持される。このため、開口形成部47の密着力を十分に稼いで開口部32bのバリの発生等が抑えられるとともに、前記密着力によるベース部材26の撓み等が抑えられる。すなわち、開口形成部47と支持ピンとがベース部材26を挟んで対向するので、開口形成部47と支持ピンとで挟み込んだベース部材26の曲げ及びせん断応力の発生が抑えられる。   In the perpendicular direction positioning step S3, the opening forming portion 47 is brought into close contact with the front surface 26m1 of the base member 26 with a predetermined force, but the force is directly supported by the first support pin 43 from the back surface 26m2 side of the base member 26. Is done. For this reason, the contact force of the opening forming portion 47 can be sufficiently increased to suppress the occurrence of burrs in the opening portion 32b, and the bending of the base member 26 due to the contact force can be suppressed. That is, since the opening forming portion 47 and the support pin are opposed to each other with the base member 26 interposed therebetween, the occurrence of bending and shear stress of the base member 26 sandwiched between the opening forming portion 47 and the support pin can be suppressed.

本実施形態では、面直方向位置決め工程S3において、第二支持ピン44の段差面(先端面44a)がベース部材26の下面(裏面26m2)に当接したままであるが、前記段差面がベース部材26から離間する構成でもよい。第二支持ピン44の段差面がベース部材26の下面に当接する部位(拡幅部28a)は、インサート成形時にベース部材26の裏面26m2を支持する第二成形時支持部36aとされる。   In the present embodiment, the step surface (front end surface 44a) of the second support pin 44 remains in contact with the lower surface (back surface 26m2) of the base member 26 in the surface perpendicular direction positioning step S3. The structure separated from the member 26 may be sufficient. A portion (widened portion 28a) where the stepped surface of the second support pin 44 contacts the lower surface of the base member 26 is a second molding support portion 36a that supports the back surface 26m2 of the base member 26 during insert molding.

ベース部材26を平面方向及び面直方向で位置決めした状態で、固定型41及び可動型42が所定の型締め力で閉じる(型締め工程S4)。これにより、金型40内にキャビティ(成形空間CV)が形成される。
図8(c)、図9を参照し、キャビティCV内には、例えば固定型41に設けた流路46を介して被覆部材形成材料J(溶融樹脂)が射出注入され、ベース部材26の周囲に被覆部材31を形作る。この被覆部材形成材料Jを冷却、凝固させることで、一体のフロアステップ部材25が形成される(成形工程S5)。
図8(d)、図9を参照し、成形工程S5の後、金型40を開いて製品を金型40内から取り出すことで(製品取り出し工程S6)、ステップフロア部材25の製造が完了する。
In a state where the base member 26 is positioned in the plane direction and the direction perpendicular to the plane, the fixed mold 41 and the movable mold 42 are closed with a predetermined mold clamping force (mold clamping step S4). Thereby, a cavity (molding space CV) is formed in the mold 40.
With reference to FIGS. 8C and 9, for example, the covering member forming material J (molten resin) is injected and injected into the cavity CV through the flow path 46 provided in the fixed mold 41. The covering member 31 is formed. By cooling and solidifying the covering member forming material J, an integral floor step member 25 is formed (molding step S5).
With reference to FIG. 8D and FIG. 9, after the molding step S5, the mold 40 is opened and the product is taken out from the die 40 (product taking-out step S6), whereby the manufacture of the step floor member 25 is completed. .

以上説明したように、上記実施形態におけるインサート成形部品及びその製造方法によれば、インサート成形時、ベース部材26の表面26m1に金型40の開口形成部47を密着させるとともに、開口部32bの裏側となる部位でベース部材26の裏面26m2を支持することで、開口形成部47の密着力を確保してバリの発生等を抑えた上で、板状のベース部材26の反り等を抑えることができる。また、最小限の成形時支持部36で効率よくベース部材26を支持可能となり、ベース部材26裏側の支持痕を減らすとともに成形性の確保も容易にすることができる。
このように、板状のベース部材26に被覆部材31を一体的に形成するインサート成形部品において、ベース部材26の表面26m1を部分的に露出させる開口部32bを被覆部材31に形成して斬新な外観としながら、バリ及び反りの発生等を抑えて品質確保を容易にすることができる。
As described above, according to the insert molded component and the manufacturing method thereof in the above embodiment, the opening forming portion 47 of the mold 40 is brought into close contact with the surface 26m1 of the base member 26 and the back side of the opening 32b. By supporting the back surface 26m2 of the base member 26 at a portion that becomes, it is possible to suppress the warpage of the plate-like base member 26, etc., while ensuring the adhesion of the opening forming portion 47 and suppressing the occurrence of burrs and the like. it can. Further, the base member 26 can be efficiently supported by the minimum support portion 36 at the time of molding, and the support traces on the back side of the base member 26 can be reduced and the moldability can be easily ensured.
In this way, in the insert-molded part in which the covering member 31 is integrally formed on the plate-like base member 26, the opening 32b that partially exposes the surface 26m1 of the base member 26 is formed in the covering member 31 and is novel. While maintaining the appearance, the generation of burrs and warpage can be suppressed to ensure quality.

また、ベース部材26における表面26m1を被覆部材31に覆われる部位に設けた位置決め孔29によって、インサート成形時にベース部材26の平面方向の位置決めを行うので、位置決め孔29がベース部材26の表面26m1側すなわちステップフロア部材25の意匠面側に露出せず、ステップフロア部材25の外観への影響を抑えることができる。また、ベース部材26の外周部で位置決めを行う構成に比して、ベース部材26の外周の全周を被覆部材31で容易に覆うことができる。   Further, since the base member 26 is positioned in the planar direction during insert molding by the positioning hole 29 provided in the portion covered with the covering member 31 on the surface 26m1 of the base member 26, the positioning hole 29 is located on the surface 26m1 side of the base member 26. That is, the influence on the external appearance of the step floor member 25 can be suppressed without being exposed to the design surface side of the step floor member 25. Further, the entire circumference of the outer periphery of the base member 26 can be easily covered with the covering member 31 as compared with the configuration in which positioning is performed at the outer periphery of the base member 26.

また、ベース部材26における表面26m1を被覆部材31の表内周被覆部33に覆われる部位には、表内周被覆部33の模様形状に沿ってベース開口部27が形成されるので、ベース部材26の表裏に渡って被覆部材31を形成する場合にも、被覆部材形成材料Jの流れを良好にするとともに、被覆部材31をゴム等の弾性材料で形成する等により被覆部材31に弾性を持たせる場合にも、ベース開口部27が無い場合に比して被覆部材31の底付き感が抑えられ、厚さを抑えつつも弾性の高いステップフロア部材25を構成することができる。   Further, since the base opening 26 is formed along the pattern shape of the front inner periphery covering portion 33 at a portion of the base member 26 where the surface 26m1 is covered by the front inner periphery covering portion 33 of the covering member 31, the base member Even when the covering member 31 is formed across the front and back surfaces of the cover member 26, the covering member 31 has elasticity by making the covering member forming material J flow better and forming the covering member 31 with an elastic material such as rubber. Even in the case where the base opening 27 is not provided, the feeling of bottoming of the covering member 31 is suppressed as compared with the case where the base opening 27 is not provided, and the step floor member 25 having high elasticity can be configured while suppressing the thickness.

また、被覆部材31の裏側被覆部35における開口部32bの裏側で成形時支持部36を避けた部位に、ステップフロア部材25をフットレスト21に取り付けるための突部37が形成されるので、ベース開口部27が形成されていても、表内周被覆部33に突部37の形成によるヒケ等が生じることを抑え、外観品質を容易に確保することができる。   Further, since a protrusion 37 for attaching the step floor member 25 to the footrest 21 is formed at a portion of the back side covering portion 35 of the covering member 31 on the back side of the opening portion 32b and avoiding the molding support portion 36, the base opening Even if the portion 27 is formed, it is possible to suppress the occurrence of sink marks or the like due to the formation of the protrusion 37 in the inner surface covering portion 33, and to easily ensure the appearance quality.

なお、本発明は上記実施形態に限られるものではなく、例えば、第二支持ピン44は先端面44a(段差面)を形成する段付きピンであるが、先端面を形成しない(ベース部材26を面直方向で支持しない)構成としてもよい。そして、スクータ型の自動二輪車のステップフロア部材への適用に限らず、三輪又は四輪も含む様々な車両部品への適用を始め、種々のインサート成形部品への適用が可能である。   The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment. For example, the second support pin 44 is a stepped pin that forms a tip surface 44a (step surface), but does not form the tip surface (the base member 26). It is good also as a structure which is not supported in a perpendicular direction. And it is applicable not only to the step floor member of a scooter type motorcycle but also to various insert molded parts, including application to various vehicle parts including three or four wheels.
